Artists and Artisans

We can find in Manawan dozens of artists and quality Native artisans from an ancient oral tradition background. On this Website (http://www.musiquenomade.com/#!/eadse) you will hear many contemporary Atikamekw artists. In addition, the group of singers/drummers Black Bear is considered one of the best in Canada.

See one of their performance on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O28Y74IdzeQ. The Manawan Native Reserve is mainly famous for its birch bark craft that we find in the form of baskets of different sizes and rarely in the form of traditional canoes of 14 or 16 feet. At the reception office of Manawan Tourism, you can observe many handicrafts and it is possible to make purchase.
